The Holy Empire of Verhavenstadt is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Julius Schwarzgeld with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, public floggings, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 9.496 billion Verhavenstadters are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Verhavenstadt. The average income tax rate is 74.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Verhavenstadtian economy, worth a remarkable 1,229 trillion Guilders a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 129,459 Guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The nation is currently revamping its entire education system, AI citizens are criticized for being robotic, the new 'Who Wants To Be A Politician' election debate auditions are more popular than the debates themselves, and most ambassadors from Verhavenstadt retire only a few years after being appointed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Verhavenstadt's national animal is the Parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Ancient Humanism.
Verhavenstadt is ranked 191,120th in the world and 46th in The Confederacy of Free Nations for Most Stationary, with 59.91671859772 days.
